Reviews for Kabuto Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar in Essex, MD

Delicious sushi. We had hibachi too. Great entertainment. We went on a Friday night. Had a wait for the chef to arrive

Met some guys here for lunch, so our cook had a large order. We had great service the whole time, the person taking the food and... drink orders did great and was very responsive with refills. The cook was engaging and clearly very skilled, exactly what youwould expect from a Japanese Steakhouse. I got the steak and shrimp combo with fried rice. Both meats were cooked perfectly. The "yumyum" sauce or whatever it is actually called paired well with them. They even had some side vegetables that were alsogrilled to perfection I wholly recommend checking it out if you haven't!

Excellent sushi! Fresh and quickly prepared. The wait staff were efficient and attentive. A very nice meal and a wonderful... atmosphere. Read more

The food was amazing as usual, the reason behind 3 stars is the wait time. We sat down after being greeted by the front desk,... waited for 15mins to get a server who had been waiting every table on the floor. They're unbearably understaffed, and you couldsee it by how the other patreon's ordered minor meals and drinks. We spoke with the other table next to us, whom informed me andmy mother they had waited 30mins to get a bowl of soup from the time they received the menu. Please staff your establishment, asyou have a great atmosphere, but it's unfortunate to see the lack of servers to appease a crowd. Read more

Loved it! We went there for my granddaughter's 14th birthday it was 9 of us! She really enjoyed it!

I went here for my birthday dinner and I had an amazing time! The food was fantastic and so was the staff. My biggest complaint... is that they don't allow reservations. I spoke with the staff about why they don't do reservations and honestly the reason isnot sufficient. No one can be seated until your entire party arrives, which means there are large groups of people just waitingin the lobby. This was my third time coming to the restaurant and only my first time eating because of this issue. Over anhour wait just standing in the lobby. The actual restaurant experience was great but getting in there to eat is nearlyimpossible???? Read more

I have eaten their hibachi many times and it is delicious. I just recently started getting their sushi and it is also very good.... Sake had great flavor too. Read more

Food was terrific ;we had t bone steak and salmon . Was so much that we couldn't eat it all takeout boxes were presented before... we asked. A little noisy is the only problem. Maybe the music could be a little lower. Read more
